Mick beats George to suite
PRESIDENT George Bush can’t get no satisfaction — after Mick Jagger grabbed his hotel room.

The Rolling Stone splashed out £3,600 a night for the suite days before the US leader tried to book it.

Now Mick, 62, who has been a fierce critic of the Bush-led war in Iraq, is refusing to give it up.

The veteran rocker hired the luxury Royal Suite at the five-star Imperial Hotel in Vienna, Austria, for June when the Stones are due to play a gig in the city.

Bush’s aides then tried to book it to tie in with a summit meeting.

But Mick put his foot down and insisted he was keeping the booking.

A source close to the millionaire singer said last night: “White House officials had wanted to reserve the suite and all the other rooms on the first floor.

“But Mick and the Stones had already booked every one of them.

4. Mick's room, not Bush's room
I read this story this morning. The article entitles it 'Bush's Room'. What the hell makes it Bush's room. Mick had the room booked long before Bush tried to get it. It's Mick's room and I hope he tells Bush to cram it up his as*!

5. Wouldn't it be hysterical if no one extended an offer for him to
spend the night in their own luxurious abode? Or even more enjoyable if they told him he was staying in a castle and it turns out to be a neglected, crumbling, drafty one?
